Tapping under the desk, lips pressed against her finger along with the aria, closed eyes her mind just wandered with the lyrics.
"Can you shift there?"
She hurriedly took out the earphone to hide it under the desk when she saw it was Aric indeed.
" Hey, I almost visited hell." She scowl at him for distributing her peaceful moment.
As he got seated, he pulled one side and put it in his ear gradually smiling at her.
"Why do you seem so lost?"
"Nothing, just moving with the flow."
By then she had somehow started thinking positive about him for he doesn't irritate her like before and has quite known each other."Aric, will you sing me a song? I saw you singing last time."
"When?" He raised his eyebrow again and she knows what he will do next thus, stopped at first point itself.
"Hey, don't do it..you better don't open your eyes for a while." She closed his eyes with her hand.
"If you keep on closing my eyes, how will I get to see your expression when I sing."
"Oo...you can..but not that naughty action of your eyes here."
"Okay fine" as she slowly opened her eyes his eyes was glowing differently than usual.
" Shall I sing you some fine days when you are alone?"
"Why? I know you are good at it."
"I have Enochlophobia." His eyes got direct contact with her even when he was smiling that left her with zero words.
"Are you sure?" What came at last.
"Yes, your promise." Putting his hands on her head.
"He isn't that much irritating too." She smiled as she thought of his innocence back then when she was most depressed and was lying low.
Don't Wanna Cry...
Sitted on her seat and bending low, whimpered until the table were soaked. She was all alone hiding her puffy eyes under her folded arms."Hey, what's wrong?" Someone lifted her swinging head which doesn't seem to balance any further.
"Why are you always crying? You look really ugly when you cry?" Aric stood in front of her seriously staring at her.
"How could you?" She glared back at him with the unceasingly flowing tears down her cheek.
"Okay..I am sorry hmm...look here, I will dance for you."with that he started to move with the song actually relating her situation that moment.(don't wanna cry:Korean version).
Gradually seeing his funny dance, she started to laugh not knowing she was so depressed more than a hour ago.
"Is it because of your bestie?"
She simply shook her head.
"Then tell me the reason and don't just stay like that."
"Nothing, am fine."
"What a bad liar. I can sense it wholly through you. Hmm...for now just forget everything and let's go for lunch."
"I don't have appetite."
"Dummy... let's go." He grabbed her wrist and started dragging when she shouted out in irritation.
"Just leave me alone please, I don't want to go." She begged him as if like throwing both her sadness and irritating regarding bestie all at once.
Giving a serious look he finally let her go.
After a while, Shova entered the classroom singing her favourite song. She had really a good voice and is very much passionate about it too.
With much difficulty of crying out, she was finally about to hold a little. Suddenly tom and Jerry started playing hide and seek. Thus, the two of them went to the canteen with just 20 nyultrum Aric had given her a few days ago.
